After Lu Hanjiang and his party headed north, they neither rushed on the road nor deliberately wasted time halfway. They each had their own considerations.

Lu Hanjiang came out with the mentality of visiting mountains and rivers, so he naturally didn't want to go back to the prison in the capital so soon, not to mention, Wu Qiming had sent letters over and over again, and Jinyiwei's yamen had already piled up a lot of affairs that needed to be dealt with by him.

After hearing the news, Lu Hanjiang wasn't very keen to return home, but this time he was shocked even more. Thinking of the piles of documents, he wished he could turn around and go back to the south immediately.

Of course, as one of his own people who knows the basics, Wu Qiming also knew that it would be counterproductive to use the work of the yamen to force Lu Hanjiang, so he attached Yongle's letter to the news very cunningly. I would like to use the communication line of Jinyiwei to express my thoughts.

Lu Hanjiang, who works in the yamen, can be lazy, but the husband's responsibility can't be escaped. After all, he doesn't want Mr. Meng, who is feigning death, to suddenly appear in front of him and give him another good scolding.

As for the others, the brothers and sisters of the Zhao family have the idea of ​​traveling. Meihua Academy is short of manpower, but they are not in a hurry, so they don't have to worry at all.

And the last remaining Tianquan is also responsible for finding a good place for the little beggar to settle down, so every time he goes to a place, he will deliberately stop and observe.

Oh, by the way, it can no longer be called a little beggar. After the Qian family girl tidies up, although she may not be very beautiful, she can at least be called Xiaojiabiyu.

Since leaving Hongshan Town, Qian Xiaoxiao's mood has changed significantly. She no longer keeps silent like a gourd, and occasionally chats with Tianquan.

But maybe because he missed his aunt who was buried outside Hongshan Town, Qian Xiaoxiao was not in high spirits along the way.

But compared to these, what Lu Hanjiang cares more about is that Qian Xiaoxiao never mentioned what happened in Hongshan Town that day, whether it was the atrocities committed by the townspeople against her or what Lu Hanjiang said to her.

Qian Xiaoxiao's tragic experience, Lu Hanjiang deduced from the experience of the policeman in the yamen early in the morning, he is very satisfied with the other party's reaction now.

If she yelled and yelled for her, Lu Hanjiang felt that this girl was not a good girl. At this moment, Qian Xiaoxiao hid everything in her heart as if nothing had happened. This is a mature expression.

Sometimes choosing silence is not cowardice, it is a change in mentality, and it is also the process of changing Qian Xiaoxiao's thinking.

In any case, Lu Hanjiang remembered her as a person.

Speaking of this journey, although Hongshan Town has left many bad memories for everyone, it is not without praiseworthy places, such as the wonderful scene of Bailongdu that day.

Although the river god's apparition is a fiction, but the scene of the thunder clouds shining in the sky, and the sky and the earth are peaceful, still left a deep impression on everyone.

Especially Lu Hanjiang, who has a great interest in such things, has shown a strong curiosity about the customs and legends of various places along the way.

When passing through a village and town, he heard that there is a local tradition of offering sacrifices to fox spirits. Lu Hanjiang became interested again and planned to go to the town to inquire about it. This time, Zhao Ziyi suddenly volunteered to ask for him, although he didn't know what it meant. , but Lu Hanjiang is also happy to have someone to run errands.

So, Zhao Ziyi found a woman who was washing clothes by the river, and asked, "Ma'am, I heard that this place worships the Fox Immortal God, but where is the Immortal Temple?"

Seeing that he was well-dressed and dressed like a scholar, the woman was a little cautious at first, but when she heard the other party's question, her face changed immediately, and she spat at him: "There are no fox spirits! There are a group of fox spirits!"

After saying that, he picked up the unwashed clothes and walked away. When he was done, he still looked back at Zhao Ziyi with disdainful eyes, muttering words like stinky man.

Zhao Ziyi, who was scolded for no reason, was very aggrieved. He turned around and told a few people about it. Apart from being puzzled, everyone became interested.

So several people continued on the road, came to the town, first found an inn to stay, and then called Xiao Er to inquire about the matter.

Xiao Er looked at Huangfu Xiaoyuan and Zhao Zijun who were as beautiful as flowers, and then at Tianquan and Qian Xiaoxiao who were still young, with a look of distress on his face.

Then, he smiled and brought Lu Hanjiang and Zhao Ziyi aside, and said in a low voice: "You two guests, since you came here to find Sister Fox Immortal, why did you bring the girl with you?"

The two looked at each other, even more puzzled, Zhao Ziyi asked: "Xiaoer, where did this fox fairy come from, why can't the girl's family take it with her?"

Xiaoer smiled, showing an expression that any man could understand, and he reminded in a low voice: "It's not easy for girls to get involved in this matter. If you two have that kind of meaning, you might as well wait until nightfall and go and see for yourself."

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Er mysteriously told the two of them the location, and then retreated. Zhao Ziyi still frowned, but Lu Hanjiang was thoughtful, as if he had already guessed something.

Zhao Ziyi didn't think too much about it, so he turned around and told everyone what Xiao Er had said. They looked at each other, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in Xiao Er's gourd, so they planned to go and have a look together after nightfall.

Lu Hanjiang didn't stop him either, so after the sky darkened, they followed Xiao Er's guidance and came to a remote place outside the town.

After passing through the deep forest path, a bright light suddenly opened up before the eyes, and the bright lights made people wonder if they were hallucinating. There is such a luxurious high-rise building in this secluded forest.

Colorful lanterns hung high above it, and there were many cars and horses parked at the door. Yingying Yanyan's cheers instantly made the faces of the girls in the company become weird.

After seeing the true face of this flower building, Zhao Ziyi also looked embarrassed. He finally knew why he was spat on when he went to inquire about it, and he finally knew why Xiaoer showed such an ambiguous expression.

The "fox fairy" of emotion is really a "fox spirit". This so-called "fairy temple" is actually an elegant name given by the people in the town. In fact, this is a hidden flower house.

However, Lu Hanjiang's words brought everyone back to their senses: "Don't you think it's strange, wouldn't the business be better if the brothel opened in the town? Why hide in the depths of the dense forest."

These words immediately calmed down everyone's chaotic thoughts. It is true, who knows how to do business and opened a brothel in an old forest deep in the mountains. As the saying goes, there must be demons when things go wrong, and there must be something wrong here.

"Brother Yue said that there must be something weird here, why don't we pretend to be guests and go inside to investigate first." Tianquan suggested.

Zhao Ziyi hesitated a little. He glanced back at his younger sister, then at Huangfu Xiaoyuan, seeing that neither of them objected, and then said: "Taoist Master Tianquan's words are good, so why don't you just let me know?" I will go with Brother Yue."

Tianquan was taken aback when he heard the words, and hurriedly said: "You can also go with the poor."

Lu Hanjiang said with a smile: "Fellow Tianquan Taoist should go back and wait for our news. You are dressed in a Taoist robe and you are a young hero, so you just go in dressed like this. If this place is really a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, you may easily startle the snake."

Tianquan was stunned, and then said embarrassingly: "That's right, it's just being impoverished and reckless."
